Installation

Install this package with npm.

``bash
npm i @phantomstudios/ft-react-components
`

Usage

$3

Add the provider to \_app.tsx, pass the site's page content to PageViewData

`JSX
import { FTTrackerProvider } from "@phantomstudios/ft-react-components";
.
.
.
return (


;

)
`

Construct the pageViewData object from the site content data. use setPageViewData and setTrackingOptions to update the tracker provider.
See the Phantom FT partner tracking implementation guide for the full config object schema.
TODO - consider moving to this lib with empty/default values and adding Yup validation to console error/eslint when incomplete.

`JSX
import { useFTTracker, TrackingOptions, ConfigType } from "@phantomstudios/ft-react-components";
.
.
const { setPageViewData, setTrackingOptions } = useFTTracker();

useEffect(() => {
const globals = pageProps.globals;
const article = pageProps.article;
const category = pageProps.category;

setTrackingOptions({
scrollTrackerSelector: "#o_tracker_scroll",
isCustomGTMEvent: true,
sendGTMPageViewYN: true,
});

const errorValue = "404";
if (!setPageViewData) return;
setPageViewData({
advertiserIndustry: (globals && globals.sitewide.industry) || errorValue,
app:
(article && article.content_type) ||
(globals && globals.sitewide.homepage_label) ||
errorValue,
articleName:
(article && article.title) ||
(globals && globals.sitewide.homepage_label) ||
errorValue,
author:
.
.
.
} as ConfigType);
}, [pageProps]);
`

#### Video tracking

Video event tracking is handled by the videoTracker instance available from the useFTTracker hook. It is currently only compatible with react-player implementations which is the current standard player implementation for Phantom NextJS sites.

`JSX
import { useFTTracker } from "@phantomstudios/ft-react-components";
import ReactPlayer from "react-player";
.
.
const { videoTracker } = useFTTracker();
.
.
controls
height="100%"
style={{ position: "absolute", top: 0, left: 0 }}
onDuration={videoTracker?.setDuration}
onEnded={videoTracker?.trackEnded}
onPause={videoTracker?.trackPause}
onPlay={videoTracker?.trackPlay}
onProgress={videoTracker?.trackProgress}
width="100%"
url={fileToURL(article.video)}
light={fileToURL(article.image)}
playIcon={}
onClick={handlePlayButtonClick}
/>
`

$3

Loads the external permutive scripts, requires Permutive project specific IDs (environment variables) - add to the sites' _document.tsx

`JSX
import { PermutiveSetup } from "@phantomstudios/ft-react-components";
.
.
// Permutive tracking
const PERMUTIVE_PROJECT_ID = process.env.PERMUTIVE_PROJECT_ID || "";
const PERMUTIVE_PUBLIC_API_KEY = process.env.PERMUTIVE_PUBLIC_API_KEY || "";
.
.
render() {
return (





projectID={PERMUTIVE_PROJECT_ID}
publicAPIKey={PERMUTIVE_PUBLIC_API_KEY}
/>
.
.
`

$3

Render in an appropriate page level component. FTPartnerContent requires 3 props as below to display the site's required partner links. It has optional disclaimer (controls the on/off tooltip state) and author (determines 1 of 4 tooltip texts) props.

`JSX
import {
CookieMessage,
FTHeader,
FTFooter,
FTPartnerContent,
} from "@phantomstudios/ft-react-components";
.
.


siteUrl={globals.sitewide.url}
siteTitle={globals.sitewide.title}
partner={{
title: "Zurich",
url: "https://www.zurich.com/",
}}
/>
{showHero && }







`

#### Reuseable component styles and icons

NOTE: all 4 components rely on a single global .scss styles file, which needs to be loaded in _app.tsx as a global import:

`JSX
//load combined FT components styles as global
import "@phantomstudios/ft-react-components/src/components/ft/styles/app.scss";
`

Additionally, some the components use styling from the @financial-times root components, so adding a node_modules sass path to NextJS's next.config.js is required:

`JS
module.exports = {
//other config
sassOptions: {
includePaths: [
// Required by the @financial-times/o- sass
path.resolve(__dirname, "./node_modules/@financial-times"),
],
},
};
`

Currently, the partner header icons need to be copied to the NextJS sites' /public/ft/partner-content folder

$3

Implements the placeholder div and initialisation for Brandmetrics surveys.
NOTE: Surveys also require the separate Brandmetrics external CDN script to be loaded and available on window.

`JSX
import { BrandMetricsSurvey } from "@phantomstudios/ft-react-components";
.
.
{article.brandmetrics_survey_id && (
/>
)}
`

$3

Renders a styled img with with display:hidden and height:0

`JSX
import { TrackingPixel } from "@phantomstudios/ft-react-components";
.
.
{article.brandmetrics_pixel_url && (

)}
